«Matic did not attend the last training sessions with the professional squad for which he was called up. This behavior is completely incomprehensible for an experienced player, with a contract until 2025», can be read in a statement.
«Naturally sensitive to the personal well-being of its players, the club would like to highlight that all the procedures necessary for the successful integration of Nemanja Matic and his entourage were carried out with complete transparency. The club has always done its utmost to provide its players, especially foreign players, with the best possible conditions to express their talent on the field», it is further said.
